πŸ’› Could you spare 1–2 hours a week to support an older person in your community?

ALONE is currently seeking volunteers in the Killorglin region to join our Befriending & Visitation and/or Telephone Support Services.

Whether you'd prefer to visit an older person locally for a cup of tea and a chat or make friendly weekly phone calls from the comfort of your own home, your time can make a real difference in helping to reduce loneliness and social isolation.

Volunteer Opportunities:

Spend around 1 hour per week together
Enjoy a friendly chat and companionship
πŸ“ž Telephone Support & Befriending Volunteers

Make a few friendly calls each week
Volunteer from the comfort of your own home
Flexible commitment of up to 2 hours per week

No special experience is neededβ€”just kindness, empathy, and a willingness to connect with others.

We're currently looking for:

βœ…10x Visitation & Befriending Volunteers

βœ… 5x Telephone Support Volunteers

A small commitment of your time can have a lasting impact on someone's life.

Adventure mode: ON! πŸŒ΄πŸ¦•
Our Laune Childcare summer camp squad went wild (literally!) exploring the jungle-like magic of Kells Bay Gardens β€” tropical plants, secret pathways, wobbly rope bridge crossings πŸŒ‰ (brave adventurers only!), and maybe a dinosaur or two πŸ¦–πŸ‘€ It's definitely worth a visit if you haven't been!
Then on the way home a quick stop to Rossbeigh Beach for sandy toes and big giggles! Best. Day. Ever. πŸŒŠβ˜€οΈ

Laune Childcare Service Day Out – Kennedy's Pet Farm πŸ„πŸπŸ‡

The children from Laune Childcare Service had a brilliant day out at Kennedy's Pet Farm last week, meeting and feeding rabbits, goats, ponies, and other farmyard friends. It was a fun, hands-on day full of fresh air, laughter, and new experiences with animals.

Thanks to Kennedy's Pet Farm for having us, and to all the parents for their support!
